  1. We've been chasing a hi speed engine miss for a while now, and one of the things we are replacing because resistance is hi,

    is the coil, new one arrived to day.

    Genuine DENSO.... :yes:

    Also replaced was the dizzy cap, rotor arm, and new DENSO plugs are on there way.

  2. Credit where credit is due Dave, we reconize the efforts of all service crew members put in, how ever small they think it is.

    I know some of the job don't seem to be a big deal, like cleaning windows, torquing wheel nuts, checking tyre pressures, etc, but at the end of the day it all matters to the driver when he's driving the tit's off it.

     

    Oh and thanks to all who voted for us for RCCOFT, but i think there's more deserving guys/cars.

  3. Not this tme, still doing the sportsman series up here and i think the last round is about that time.

    But next year we have committed o the 2WD rally master series.

     

    All the best with the Celica, my fingers are crossed. :yes:

  4. Keith is on to it.

     

    There's a lot of hard work in rallying if you want to run at the front of the field.

    Yes you need to know how to drive but the car has to be good as well, this includes all the hours maintaning the car.

    Tony and I are lucky, two of us work the on the car, tony drives and I do all the service, huge advantage having this sort of team work. We also have Rollaclub members who come and service for us as well, thanks Justin, Teddy and Dave.

     

    But you can just through a cage in a car and go out and have some fun, but don't expect to be at the front of the field in a car with just a cage. Another way to get into rallying and see what it's all about, is to offer your services as a service crew, most teams struggle finding guys who can swing spanners.

     

    The rally that last video shows, border rangers rally, that is one the nicest events in the way of road quality, they are a lot worse in QLD.

  5. Very good question young grasshopper.

    It does comply with CAMs club rally car reg's, but we are going to do the AASA/AMSAG 2WD rally master next year.

    We've decided to take the Corolla around the easten part of the country.

    It's been fun playing in QLD but it's now time to see how good the car and driver are against the rest of Australia.

    Also Craig Aggio with the Group B Celica is going to be doing it again as well.

     

    The change to a 6 speed gearbox is the best thing, the old box was good but even with a close ratio kit, it would still be lacking in places, with is box we get the best of both worlds, 5 close gears and an overdriven 6th, so we keep our top end.

  6. Well after the problems with the gearbox, Tony has decided to fit an IS200 6 speed to the Corolla, cause it really doesn't comply with any of CAM's regs we're going to do it.

    We'll run the T50 in the car until the end of the year.

    The vibration was a bent main shaft, so we had a dig through our gearbox parts and have found a couple of shafts that may do the job.
